Concerning the hoopoe about which you said: "It has been sent as a message" — and concerning the temple of Marduk, we shall see a good month, and it (the ritual) should be performed; he does not know.

Elul (VI) is a good month.

Also, concerning the ritual of the haruspex, he does not know about the 2nd day; again, it is good. Let it be performed and let us be confident.

Also, if it is feasible, why don't the guards and Perhu keep watch there, on account of a matter like this?

Alternatively, if it is not good to let the men go to the roof of the temple at dawn, some expedient must be formed on account of the bird (and) anything beyond it.

[Co]ncerning the roof of the temple of Marduk about which the king, my lord, spoke, it is good to perform (the ritual) there. Elul (VI) is a good month; and the 2nd day is suitable for extispicy. Let it be performed accordingly.
